Can anyone tell me where the nearest large (10k +) settlement of Dwarves is to the Kingdom of Cormyr? Thanks.

For dwarves these days, outside of the Northern citadels and the Great Rift, populations of 10000+ are extremely rare - especially in the Inner Sea lands. The greatest concentration of dwarves is likely to be in the Far Hills, west of Cormyr but I'm pretty sure that they number less than 10k.

OK, I finally got home and can look at my maps.
I hope this is not a stupid question, but what country is west of Cormyr? |

| The Western Heartlands and then the Sword Coast. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

There aren't really any realms west of Cormyr that can be considered true countries... just a lot of independent cities and towns dot the region that makes up the Western Heartlands, and then to the North and Sword Coast.
The only actual country west of Cormyr, and a great deal to the North, is the Silver Marches... just north of the High Forest.

Well I guess that explains why I could not find a country on the map.
